Let
us show you the Top End of Australia - from Broome
and the Kimberley Ranges, across to Katherine, Darwin,
and the world famous Kakadu National Park. Come and
explore the wild northern frontier including beautiful
areas like Litchfield, the Bungle Bungle Ranges, and
other hidden treasures accessible to those who travel
with us.
Our
tours involve a reasonable degree of bushwalking,
swimming and rock climbing and are perfect for adventurous
people. Wherever possible our aim is to "get away
from the crowds" and take passengers into the more
isolated areas of Australia's Northern Territory and
the Kimberley region. We believe that customer satisfaction
is extremely important and always receive positive
feedback from people who have travelled on our tours.
We
are confident that all of our guides have the ability
to provide you with an enjoyable and exciting experience.
If this sounds good to you and you want a perfect
holiday, then take a tour with Wilderness 4WD Adventures.

Day Kakadu Green Season Adventure (3KA)

What
a great time of the year to be heading to the tropical north
and watching the Top End go throught it's most spectacular
changes. The Top End has the most electrical activity in
the world and at this time of the year you can watch awesome
lightning storms as they travel across the sky.It is a time
of plenty - the bush comes to life, floodplains begin to
fill, vegetation turns lush green, the wildlife is active
and the crowds have all gone. The rain also revitalises
waterfalls that have been dry for 7 months creating new
destinations to visit and places where you can swim.
It is too wet and humid to camp with tents so between December
and March all groups enjoy the luxury of staying at dry,
mosquito proof permanent camp with overnight accommodation
in air-conditioned share rooms.
